The party - complete with pennant banners and absolutely delicious food.
We waved these little flags with the "1"s on them while we sang "Happy Birthday". It was very cute.

Sammy's friend, Leah, who loves him and always walks around saying "Shammy!" She is younger than Sam but is already almost speaking in full sentences. She is such a little genius.

Don and I also went on an awesome date to the King Tut exhibit at the Denver Art Museum. I was confused as to why the exhibit was an art exhibit, but it really did focus primarily on the art of the time period. I found the reworking of statues of previous pharaohs by later pharaohs most interesting. They would have a sculptor chisel out their features in their predecessors statues so they wouldn't have to have entirely new statues created. Repurposing/recycling. Very economical. I also really liked the little side exhibit about the forensic science they've used to determine how King Tut died. They think he broke his leg and it became infected and the infection eventually killed him. It was a really interesting exhibit. I would definitely recommend seeing it.
After the museum, we went to a cute little French restaurant downtown called Le Central. The petit chevre was fabulous! It was such a fun date! Don does such a great job planning romantic outings. I'm such a lucky girl to have such a thoughtful husband.

I love the crazy statues they have outside the museum. This dustpan and broom one is a favorite of mine.
Here is the sweet little French restaurant.
